The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. We’ve got a long, quiet spell ahead at Karramarro. Let’s be straight with you – this 16-day window starts off flat and stays that way for a while. There’s a real gap, with nothing worth paddling out for from now until the morning of Sunday the 9th of August. That’s over a week of small, weak, and messy conditions.

The only flicker of life comes on Sunday the 9th of August. The morning session will see a bump in swell to 4ft from the NW, with a period of 8 seconds. The energy is still only moderate, around (177), but the wind is light and cross-offshore, making for clean lines. This is the best we’ll see, but it’s still just surfable, not epic. It’s a point break that’s inconsistent and normally needs a decent push to get going, so keep expectations in check. The afternoon will get chopped up by a cross-shore breeze, so get on it early. The water temp is about average for the time of year.

After that, it’s back to the doldrums. The rest of the second week offers nothing but tiny, weak swells and poor conditions. This is a spot that can go quiet, and this run is a classic example of that. Don’t hold your breath.

Rusty.

Information about the Karramarro Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Karramarro provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Karramarro can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Karramarro surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Karramarro) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).

Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Karramarro may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
